About our school

Founded in 1908 in Germiston, St Catherine’s caters for boys and girls from Grade 000 – 12, an independent Day School. Life at school centres on the teachings of Jesus, respect for all and community involvement. We pride ourselves on high academic standards, cultural activities and involvement in a wide variety of sporting activities. Large enough to make an impact, small enough to be a family. St Catherine’s is an environment of opportunity that supports and inspires our students to equip themselves with the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to succeed as adults. We are driven to create and maintain an environment where trust and respect for the individual prevails, diversity is valued and individual responsibility is fostered within the context of teamwork. St. Catherine's has always been a place in which peace and harmony has stretched itself over all nations and creeds. It has been a place for pupils, teachers and parents to chat, laugh, cry and pray together. St. Catherine's has always been seen as more of a 'home-away-from-home' than a school. Our motto VERITAS – TRUTH in everything we say and do!
